7) Start the engine.
8) When the engine has started,
remove the leads in the reverse order
to before: D, C, Band finally A.
IMPORTANT If the engine fails to
start after a few attempts, do not keep
turning the key but have the car seen
to at a Lancia Dealership.
9) Put the cover back on the bat-
tery positive terminal by fitting the
lock flanges in.
10) Put the cover back and retight-
en the knob.
11) Close the boot tailgate.IMPORTANTWhen the tailgate is
closed, the boot latch is not locked.
To lock it, turn the metal insert of
the key anticlockwise in the latch.
Do not carry out this
procedure if you lack
experience: if it is not
done correctly it can cause very
intense electrical discharges and
the battery might even explode.
Do not to put naked flames or
lighted cigarettes near the battery
and do not cause sparks: risk of
explosion and fire.
Never use a battery
charger to jump start the
engine: you could damage
the electronic system, with spe-
cial reference to ignition and
injection control unit.
BUMP STARTING
Do not bump start by pushing,
towing or coasting downhill. This
way of starting could cause a rush of
fuel into the catalytic converter and
damage it beyond repair.
Remember that ifthe engine is not
running, the brake booster and the
power steering will not work. You
therefore have to use considerably
more effort on both the brake pedal
and the steering wheel.
Never connect the nega-
tive terminals of the two
batteries directly: sparks
could ignite the flammable gas
from the battery. If the auxiliary
battery is installed on another
car, prevent accidental contact
between the metal parts of the
two vehicles.

Before towing the car,
disengage the parking
brake by following the
instructions described in the rel-
evant paragraph, and leave the
Keyless System CID device (if
provided) inside the passenger
compartment, to avoid automatic
steering column lock. Do not tow
the car with the engine running. Before starting to tow,
turn the ignition key to
MAR and then to STOP.
Do not remove the key. If the key
is removed, the steering lock
engages automatically which pre-
vents the wheels being turned.
Disengage the handbrake. While
the car is being towed with the
engine off, remember that the
brake pedal and steering will
require more effort as you no
longer have the benefit of the
brake booster and power steer-
ing. Do not use flexible cables to
tow. Avoid jerking. Whilst tow-
ing, ensure that the coupling to
the car does not damage the sur-
rounding components. When
towing, you must comply with the
specific traffic regulations
regarding the tow ring and how to
tow on the road.IMPORTANTFor versions with
automatic gearbox, check that the
selector is in neutral (selector to N),
that the car is moving because
pushed and act as for towing a car
with the manual gearbox, following
the above mentioned procedure.
If you cannot set the gear lever to
neutral, do not tow the car but con-
tact a Lancia Dealership.IMPORTANTOn versions fitted
with an identification system (Keyless
System), user is not authorised to
move the car unless the start-up knob
is turned to the position MAR. Should
it be necessary to tow the car, it is ad-
vised to turn the knob to position
MAR before moving the car.
